The Discipline
The enteric nervous system, the microbiome, vagal signaling, and the interoception of the belly. Covers what is known, and what marketing has oversold.
Within Nervous System Intelligence
The gut is not the second brain — it is part of the first. NSI keeps the science honest.
Where to Start
